Oceans

Here we lay

Oceans between us

You dreaming of freedom

And I wondering why

Youth is wasted on the young

We stumble we fall

We come undone

From those places where

Confusion tied us up in knots

Counting the cost of entanglements

That we could never have known

Would lead to this

You say my heart will be your home

But we do not yet

Really even truly know

The meandering contours of each others souls

The twisted by ways of illusion

And remembering

And so it is I let these thoughts

Come and go

For no one truly knows

The way the cards will fall

And for now

There are just so many

Oceans between us.
